Hopefully some one can help as I'm about ready to rip my hair out /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif
I've been searching for days, tweaking downloading more software etc. I made a logger cable as is shown on this site, with a female RS-232 socket with the 2nd and 3rd wires altered acordingly.
I made sure it was right by looking at the pin numbers and not just photos. I'm using MMcd with a Palm emulator hotsinked to my laptop. When I go to 'Test mode' and check it comes up with "ECU comm error" if it wasn't communicating in some way it would be "Serial comm error" so it would apear it's the car or the obde port and not my cable or software /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif The engine light is on, so that makes it pretty important that I figure this out. I have already checked with a LED and it is saying 42=fuel pump? the car is running fine /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif However even if there was not a check light comming on I still want to get the data-logger going.
Any help would be much apreciated.
